Hi C.H.:

<< But I just don't like using slide projector to evaluate resolution,
you need to focus it like crazy. >>

No kidding!  It is a burn-out after about 70 slides.

<< At 24x sharpness may pay more important part than resolution. That
may be the different we see about 90/2 and 100/2. I can see my 100/2
perform much better wide open with a 10x mag. on 4x6 inch print. >>

How about contrast being more important than resolution at lower
magnifications?  That is one theory I heard on another list.  Contax and
Leica seem to favor contrast while the Japanese companies favor
resolution or a balance of both.  The thinking of the German's is that
typical prints will look better with contrast favored.
